February 2009 in “Cell Stem Cell” This study found that hair germ cells, derived from bulge stem cells, respond faster to dermal papilla signals and have limited proliferation compared to bulge cells during hair regeneration.
This dissertation reported that the loss of Ovol2 impairs hair follicle regeneration and wound repair in mice, highlighting its role in regulating directional migration of epithelial cells.
This Ph.D. project aims to evaluate the self-assembling potential of hair keratin extracts and study the cellular response to both crude and purified keratins, highlighting their potential applications from biomedical to water remediation.
